A Celtic side, it has to be said, far superior in every way to the current one. So caps duly doffed to Turnbull's Tornadoes, as I believe they were called. Yip, one of those in the cup final after knocking us out in the semi final. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apologies to all Dons fans, I did your 1970 team a disservice. Add a 2-0 pumping of Rangers at Ibrox in October and that's four, would you believe four, wins in 1970 over the Old Firm in Glasgow. Worthy of some sort of plaque I would suggest. ! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that was when you only played them twice each in the league each season. A fantastic achievement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gannonball Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 My only highlight from yesterday, was in a Celtic pub watching it and even got a few laughs despite knowing the end was nigh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a zombie type response from you. And here’s me thinking it was just all Celtic fans who dismiss questionable songs. Funny how predictable these p&b threads go. A Celtic win normally ensures pages worth of songbook scrutiny, followed by the ‘guilty by association’ outcry for apologies. So, since we have a rare congratulatory Celtic defeat let’s actually talk about the football. Credit has to go to Kilmarnock for limiting Celtic to very few opportunities on goal and making it extremely difficult for us to break through the lines. I thought Killie held their shape well as we didn’t really attempt to drag or draw them out with very little wide play. Poor creativity, coupled with slack passing wasn’t deserving of a win yesterday. Winning Trebles contrary to what many believe is a difficult feat. Disappointing as it may feel, less pressure on trophy hauls and more work on a new a playing style and improving performances should be the focus for this squad. Half expecting a few new additions before the window closes to freshen things up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the wealth we have the expectation should be that we win trophies but every trophy every season isn’t realistic despite the dominance of the past 10 years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing but that’s the point, this season I was hopeful that we would see some improvements in Europe in terms of performance and results that would at the very least see us parachute to the Europa. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crùbag Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 Not looking forward to the next round but well done Killie for a double scalp of the Butt Cheeks. McInnes must be on other clubs' radars - Hibs, surely? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
